* Manhunt(M-rated) -- Game player's character is James Earl Cash, a convicted serial killer facing execution. The execution is ordered to be faked so that a character named "The Director" can use Cash as a star in a series of snuff films. As the Cash character kills other characters, by suffocating them with a plastic bag, slicing them up with a chainsaw, shooting them point blank with a nail gun, stabbing them in the eyeballs with a glass shard, or beheading [*6] them with a cleaver, The Director makes comments such as "You're really getting me off, Cash" and "You're really doing it for me! Why I ain't been this turned on since . . . Well, let's not go there." The game has two difficulty settings: fetish and hardcore.
